More worried about the conditions that could cause it, tbh. Those workers don't get weekends off, they're on call basically the whole year.

Yeah, I might hurt myself high-fiving the workers.

Most people get two days a week off? Damn I thought my one day every two weeks was good

It probably won't affect me all too much.
But it will fuck up a lot of shit. Starting with commuter rail.
If it happens it will be odd though, as I can almost always hear trains in the background where I'm at.

Midnight Gardening with trains in the background is a special kind of happiness.

I am sure the money is there, so I hope the workers get what they want.
It's good to see people sticking up for themselves for once.

The supply chain disruptions would've affected everyone though.

Agreed, but we've been dealing with that for about three years now.
So, I kinda just factor that in.

Strike averted. Deal reached. Together we bargain, divided we beg.

Love to see it.
